Waterproof ComponentYour new Spektrum™ SR2000 has been designed and built to allow you to operate the product in many “wet conditions”, including puddles, creeks, wet grass, snow and even rain.While waterproof, this component has not been designed to be immersed in water for long periods of time and should NOT be treated like a submarine. In addition, most metal parts, including any screws and nuts, as well as the contacts in the electrical cables, will be susceptible to corrosion if additional maintenance is not performed after running in wet conditions.To maximize the long-term performance of your SR2000 and to keep the warranty intact, it should only be used as described in the “Usage Conditions” section of this manual. Additionally, the procedures described in the “Wet Conditions Maintenance” section must be performed regularly if you choose to run in wet conditions. If you are not willing to perform the additional care and maintenance required, then you should not operate your vehicle in those conditions.

CAUTION: Failure to exercise caution while using this product and comply with the following precautions could result in product malfunction and/or void the warranty.

General PrecautionsRead through the wet conditions maintenance procedures and make sure that you have all the tools you will need to properly maintain your receiver.Do not operate your receiver where it could come in contact with salt water (ocean water or water on salt-covered roads), contaminated or polluted water. Salt water is very conductive and highly corrosive, so use caution.

Usage ConditionsYour receiver will operate successfully in any of the following, individual-usage scenarios:• 2hourscontinuousoperationindew-covered(damp)grassorvegetation.

Furthermore, when appropriate maintenance procedures (as described below) are performed promptly following exposure, the receiver will remain best protected from corrosion or other long-term, water-related damage.

Wet Conditions MaintenanceGentlyrinsethemudanddirtoffthevehiclewithagardenhose.Remove the battery pack(s) and dry the contacts. If you have an air compressor or a can of compressed air available, blow off the receiver to help remove any water that may have gotten into small crevices or corners. Dry any water that may be inside a recessed connector housing.Let the receiver air dry before you store it. Water may continue to seep or evaporate out of tight areas for a few hours.

NOTICE: Never use a pressure washer to clean your vehicle.

NOTICE: The SR2000 is waterproofed for use in wet conditions. Make sure the other components in your vehicle are waterproof or water-resistant before driving in wet conditions.

IMPORTANT: When using the receiver with a DSMR transmitter, you must re-bind any time you change the frame rate in the transmitter.

NOTICE: TheDX3R,DX3RProandtheDX4RProarerequiredfor5.5msframerate.

Receiver Connection and InstallationInstall the Receiver in your vehicle using double-sided foam servo tape. Foam servo tape will hold the receiver in place and help isolate it from vibrations. The receiver includes two pieces of double-sided foam tape. If you plan on driving your vehicle in wet conditions, use the smaller piece of foam tape (A). Otherwise, the larger piece of foam tape (B) prevents dust from entering the receiver case.

Mount the antenna up and away from the vehicle in the included antenna tube. The higher up the antenna is, the better signal it will receive.

NOTICE: Do not cut or modify the antenna.

Failsafe

The throttle failsafe position is set during binding. In the unlikely event that the radio link is lost during use, the receiver will drive the throttle channel to its pre-programmed failsafe position (normally neutral or full brakes). If the receiver is powered on prior to turning on the transmitter, the receiver will enter the failsafe mode, driving the throttle channel to its preset failsafe position. When the transmitter is turned on, normal control is resumed.

IMPORTANT: Failsafe activates only in the event that signal is lost from the transmitter. Failsafe will NOT activate in the event that receiver battery power decreases below the recommended minimums or power to the receiver is lost.

Binding Receiver to TransmitterIn order to operate, the receiver must be bound to the transmitter. Binding istheprocessofprogrammingthereceivertorecognizetheGUID(GloballyUnique Identifier) code of a single specific transmitter. When a receiver is bound to a transmitter/model memory, the receiver will only respond to that specific transmitter/model memory.

Binding 1.Withthereceiveroff,insertthebindplugintotheBINDportinthereceiver.

2. Power the receiver through any port. If an ESC is being used, connect the ESC lead to the throttle channel port. The orange LED will flash continuously, indicating that the receiver is in bind mode.

Problem Possible Cause Solution

The system will not connect

Your transmitter and receiver are too close together

Movetransmitter1to3meters from receiver

You are around metal objects

Move to an area with less metal

The receiver is not bound to the active model memory

Check model selected and ensure you are bound to that model

Your transmitter was accidentally put into bind mode and is no longer bound to your receiver

Rebind your transmitter and receiver

The receiver goes into fail-safe mode a short distance away from the transmitter

Check the receiver antenna to be sure it is not cut or damaged

Replace the receiver or contact Horizon Product Support

Make sure your receiver antenna is in an antenna tube and is above the vehicle

The receiver stops responding during operation

Inadequate battery voltage Charge or replace the receiver batteries. Spektrum receivers require atleast3.5Vtooperate(We recommend using a6Vreceiverpack).Aninadequate power supply can allow voltage to mo-mentarilydropbelow3.5Vand cause the receiver to brown out and reconnect

Loose or damaged wires or connectors between battery and receiver

Check the wires and connection between the battery and receiver. Repair or replace wires and/or connectors
